I am, to my utter dismay, still plagued with those nasty little buggering viruses. The only difference being that they seemed to have uh, called in their allies. I've got an awful runny nose now. It feels like it's about to fall off with all that sneezing and blowing I've been doing. *sniffs* And now I have to regretfully lay off my good friends, Ben & Jerry's, till my recovery.
I was just reading Odd Thomas, and me, being me, simply couldn't resist reading the ending again. For the third time. And even so, I still cried. I don't know how Dean Koontz does it, but the ending made me feel as though as a knife was plunged into my heart and twisted about. It was certainly one of the most impactful endings I have ever read thus far. Astounding. Utterly astounding.
The second non-romance fiction novel I picked up recently was "The Lost Stradivarius". The title says it all. I simply couldn't resist pulling it off the shelf. It was a slim, thin paperback, wedged between two thick novels. A novel I might not have picked up had it not been for the word "Stradivarius". Hahaha. Marc, you might want to read it.
Oh yes, my class is playing the game "Angel & Mortal". A most intriguing and rather heartwarming game. To those who are unfamiliar with this game, I shall explain. The names of every person in the class is written down onto little slips of paper and tossed into a bag. Then everyone will proceed to draw out a name. The person whose name you draw out will be your Mortal, and you will be his Angel. Angels will then give little encouraging messages/letters or small little gifts to your Mortals, but at the same time keep their identity concealed. Mortals do not know who their Angels are. Only at the end of the game, will the Angels' identities be revealed to their Mortals. Interesting? Heh.
It's only been two days since the commencement of this game and I'm already burning with curiosity about the identity of my Angel. I've already received two gifts from him/her thus far and they were really sweet. Haha. I've tried, to no avail, to decipher his/her identify from the handwriting. But I suppose I shall just have to patiently wait until the revelation, or else it'll take the whole fun out of the game :)
